Are you constipated?

Many healthy people have a bowel movement every day, while many other healthy people do not. Each body is different, and it’s actually normal for people to go #2 anywhere from three times a day to three times a week. So you’re probably not constipated if you fall within this range and your stools are soft and pass easily.

On the other hand, you may be constipated if you are having three or fewer bowel movements each week. To learn more about symptoms/prevention, and to help prevent future occurrences, please click here.
